The live webcast of Gypsy Soul's show was GREAT! The band sounded polished and performed well together. Cilette's stunning voice is an inspiring reminder of how deeply well-sung and artfully crafted songs can touch one's Soul. Roman's guitar-playing stirs up the rocker in each of us! His talent for writing original music is truly incredible. They should be on the radio!!!!

My husband and I very much enjoyed the concert. Were not previously familiar with these artists. This was a great way to become familiar - next time they are playing locally, we'll try to attend in person!

Gypsy Soul makes spirited, soulful music at the crossroads of folk and pop, rock and roots. The website CD Baby praises their “highly enriched music that nourishes the dried up gardens of the soul.” They’ve won honors at the Lilith Fair and from Just Plain Folks, and their version of “Angel from Montgomery” recently received the Independent Music Award for Best Cover Song. The Orange County Weekly calls them “unique and captivating” and “one of the most brilliantly instrumented and vocally adept bands alive and kicking.”

Singer Cilette Swann, a Canadian of South African and Irish heritage, went to Europe to explore her Celtic roots, sang with a jazz band in Paris for a while, and traveled to Edinburgh, Scotland, where she met Roman Morykit, an English musician with roots in Italy and the Ukraine. Their musical collaboration blossomed into marriage, and now, 10 albums and 1.5 million downloads later, they’re coming to the Freight with a band that includes guitarist Nick Garrett-Powell and drummer Jim Sitter. “Cilette Swann’s voice is haunting, and Roman Morykit’s musicianship is superb,” says People Magazine. Their music has been featured in such television shows as Providence, Roswell, and Felicity, as well as in several movies. Their well-chosen covers and compelling originals make for a crowd-pleasing performance!
